Different Cell Color for Stickies

What this modification does is change the td cell background color for a sticky thread when viewing a thread listing.

Please note the screenshots are from my 3.0.x release as there's no reason to make new ones.

Any way of changing the cells next to it for a sticky too? gave it my own shot but screamed as i saw 6 or so error messages and no posts in forums =S

Note: haven't skimmed a lot as am very busy so if it's in another thread just link me =)

In the threadbit template, simply find the desired <td>'s you're looking for and use the conditional:

<if conditional="$thread['sticky'] == 1">
// sticky td
<else />
// normal td
</if>

hmm ok, gave it a go, problem is some of it is already within an if tag and as a result returns:

The following error occurred when attempting to evaluate this template:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in /home/outrider/public_html/forums/includes/adminfunctions_template.php(3537) : eval()'d code on line 67

This is likely caused by a malformed conditional statement. It is highly recommended that you fix this error before continuing, but you may continue as-is if you wish.

EDIT:

Got it working, had to however use this instead (kinda different to what you said, as i can't seem to embed ifs together very well.

Here's a sample

<!-- NEW LATEST POST COLUMN FOR STICKY -->

<if condition="$show['threadmoved']">
	<td class="alt2" align="center">-</td>

<else />




<if condition="$thread['sticky'] == 1">
<td class="stickybg" title="<phrase 1="$thread[replycount]" 2="$thread[views]"> $vbphrase[replies_x_views_y]</phrase>">
		<div class="smallfont" style="text-align:$stylevar[right]; white-space:nowrap">
			$thread[lastpostdate] <if condition="!$show['detailedtime']"><span class="time">$thread[lastposttime]</span></if><br />
			<phrase 1="member.php?find=lastposter&amp;t=$thread[threadid]" 2="$thread[lastposter]">$vbphrase[by_x]</phrase>  <a href="showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]goto=lastpost&amp;t=$thread[threadid]"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/lastpost.gif" alt="$vbphrase[go_to_last_post]" border="0" /></a>
		</div>
	</td>


<else />


<td class="alt2" title="<phrase 1="$thread[replycount]" 2="$thread[views]">
       $vbphrase[replies_x_views_y]</phrase>">
		<div class="smallfont" style="text-align:$stylevar[right]; white-space:nowrap">
			$thread[lastpostdate] <if condition="!$show['detailedtime']"><span class="time">$thread[lastposttime]</span></if><br />
			<phrase 1="member.php?find=lastposter&amp;t=$thread[threadid]" 2="$thread[lastposter]">$vbphrase[by_x]</phrase>  <a href="showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]goto=lastpost&amp;t=$thread[threadid]"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/lastpost.gif" alt="$vbphrase[go_to_last_post]" border="0" /></a>
		</div>
	</td>
	</if></if>

Note: this doesn't make it look perfect once moved, so don't use it if you can think of something better =)

I'll look into it tonight, though really, it shouldn't be difficult...
